Fitting HRC rear brake pipe

Bought one of the kits, arrived through the post. Unfortunately the envelope had come partially open. Now i have the green tube, a bung and one small jubilee clip. Have fitted the tube ok but the jubilee clip appears to be too small. Am i missing a part or is it the wrong one? Apart from that it appears straight forward. Cheers in advance.
Chris.

From memory (it has been a long time since i fitted one) the tight fitting jubelee clip goes on the bottom to hold the tube onto the master cylinder and there should be like a springy clip thing that sits above the barb on the bung and prevents it from popping out.
